U.S. Attempts to Dominate World with Strong Arm Ridiculed
2007-05-05
Today's KCNA Phrase That Pays: "strong arm". When you hear it, call 1-800-KIMMY and win a tree bark and fungus sandwich.
Pyongyang, May 3 (KCNA) -- The United States has carried matters with a high hand, wielding a strong arm like a conquering hero in the international arena, only to find itself forced to pay a high price for it, says Rodong Sinmun in an article Thursday.

Branding it as an anachronistic dream to attempt to bring other countries to their knees and dominate them by a strong arm, the author of the article continues:

The strong-arm policy of the U.S. is the root cause of the harassment of global peace and security and the uneasiness and horror of the people.

The policy of strength, the strong-arm policy, can never go down with the present-day international community in which all the countries and nations are shaping their destinies independently, as it is an anti-historic criminal act aimed to dampen the independent desire of the popular masses.

There were few rulers of the U.S. who did not launch a predatory war of aggression, but the Bush bellicose group, which came to power in the new century, is more outspoken than any other in pursuing the strong-arm policy.

This gives a serious lesson to humankind. It is that humankind can never have a good night's rest and a global peace and security are unthinkable with the U.S. imperialists left alone, those who are working hard to drive the world into horror and hold sway over it by a military strong-arm action. Even the U.S. allies which had been following its lead are cutting off ties with the Bush group, sounding a note of warning against its arbitrariness and strong-arm diplomacy, saying "a lasting peace cannot be ensured with military forces alone".

The failure of the U.S. strong-arm policy is found in the stark reality of the DPRK. The U.S. has in recent years persistently resorted to the strong-arm policy against the DPRK advancing under the uplifted banner of socialism, hating it as a thorn in the flesh.

The U.S. imperialists, however, mistook the Korean people. The Workers' Party of Korea and the Korean people have resolutely shattered the aggressive moves of the enemy under the uplifted banner of Songun and further strengthened the war deterrent.

In the reality of Korea, the world people clearly see the invincible might of Songun politics capable of shattering the enemy's strong-arm policy.

#10  Ah, that's more like it. KCNA releases have been remarkably spittle-free these days, regrettably.

#1  Read the article and replace "strong-arm" with "songun", and "US" with "Korea". A perfect mirror-image.
